Global ePoint, Inc. (Symbol: GEPT) is a developer and manufacturer of industrial and commercial computer systems, digital video and audio surveillance solutions for the law enforcement, military, aviation, homeland security markets, industrial, and consumer markets. They operate through three business divisions: Aviation, Contract Manufacturing, and Digital Technology.

Recently they have announced new contracts totaling $5 million for advanced computer control technology for x-ray security systems that are going to be used in airports and other venues. These $5 million in purchase orders represent orders for computer control equipment from the two largest U.S. makers of conventional x-ray security scanning devices.

Last month they also announced announced an increasing number of orders to provide installation services of its next-generation AirWorks brand security and electronics products. What distinguishes them from other aircraft equipment vendors is they are able to deploy their installation teams worldwide, offering the customers options of using AirWorks installation specialist for equipment upgrades; thus, enables the airlines’ regular maintenance and service personnel to concentrate on their primary duties. They were also selected to provide installation services for Lufthansa, GermanWings, and Air Macao.

Below is their one year stock performance:

Looking at their one-year performance, I’d have to say it looks pretty discouraging. It was on the way up to $6/share in June/July 2004, but then it dropped in August and stayed stagnant (below $4/share) until December 2004 then it went up to $6/share and somehow it was slowly decreasing.

I don’t usually recommend poor perfoming penny stock but this one..Hmmm, not sure why, but I’ve got a feeling this one could be a good short-term investment (But not long-term though!). We shall see…I’m going to watch this one very close.

    Your post is great and let me say

    A favorite pastime of mine is Sports Betting to make a few extra bucks.
    My only problems is that I was never good at picking teams or games.
    Recently I found a site that is like Sports Betting but I dont lose my money if my pick is bad.

    Its a sports stock market, kinda like NASDAQ. which makes a big difference because if I buy shares in a team. I keep the stock whether they win or lose, but as a bonus I get paid divdends if they win.
    So I can make money with dividends and also from selling high and buying low.

    I buy shares in NFL, NASCAR, NCAAB, MLB, Golf, Tennis ect….
    They just released Some Great IPOS’s this week!
